Here I stand, head in hand,
Turn my face to the wall.
If she’s gone, I can’t go on,
Feeling two foot small.
Everywhere people stare,
Each and every day.
I can see them laugh at me,
And I hear them say:
Hey, you’ve got to hide your love away,
Hey, you’ve got to hide your love away.
How can I even try?
I can never win.
Hearing them, seeing them,
In the state I’m in.
How could she say to me
Love will find a way?
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say:
Hey, you’ve got to hide your love away,
Hey, you’ve got to hide your love away.
